First Line Management 2 - Leading and Planning

Course Duration: 2 Days


All managers need to know the difference between management and leadership. This course is targeted to help frontline managers take the lead when needed and allow the team to flow when others are empowered to lead, sharing the role to get extraordinary things done.

"Plans are only good intentions unless they immediately degenerate into hard work." - Peter Drucker (1909-2005)

We are believers in the common sense attitudes expressed by Peter Drucker. It is therefore immediately apparent that if hard work is needed to achieve the goals laid out in a plan, then frontline managers need to actively participate in the planning process.

On this course participants will learn that plans are needed to achieve the measurable, stated objectives of the team and the organisation.


World Class Training

Leadership in the current climate is definitely different to the style of leadership that existed up to the beginning of this millennium. While there's a great deal to learn from leaders in the past, there are new models of behaviour that today and tomorrow's leaders must display.

Learning Outcomes

  • Knowing why it's important to work 'On the Business', not just 'In the Business'
  • Mapping the plans to the results - in numbers, not just dolars or units
  • Understand how plans are prepared and how to work to a plan
  • Understand the difference between 'Leading and Managing'
  • Being aware and building 'Emotional Intelligence' skills
  • Demonstrating good Time Management practices
  • Appreciating the challenges of Decision Making
